Raw angle brackets in xsl:message output?

I'm using Saxon 2.0 (HE) to write a preprocessor for a set of XForms documents. If
possible, I'd like to print error messages that print element names in angle brackets,
rather than fudging and printing something like ?? error: duplicate {body} elements in
program source I've thought about this problem for some time, and have not been able to
figure out how to get xsl:message to render angle brackets, short (possibly) of
switching over to textual output, using xsl:output, which I've been loathe to try for
obvious reasons. Is there anything I'm overlooking? Thanks for any (relevant)
suggestions. Appreciatively, Phil

If you use the s9api interface you can nominate a MessageListener to process
xsl;message output, and your MessageListener can serialize messages using the text
output method, rather than the default, which is to use the XML output method. Of
course, if your messages actually contain XML content, this isn't a good idea.
